Description:
------------
This request is to remove a dependency.

SOAP uses *openssl* (compiled into PHP) to retrieve the WSDL file if the transport is HTTPS. However, it then uses *CURL* to call the services. So if you have one installed, but not the other, something is going to fail.

As you can see from my PHP config below, my ISP doesn't have openssl installed, so I cannot access WSDL files via https.

I saw this comment in the WSDL.php file: "// this section should be replace by curl at some point". The point of this feature/change request is to ask if there has been any progress on this point.
